I wrote a whole 3 paragraph reply to this, but it crashed and now I’m too lazy to write it again.

But yes, this. “Everyone getting UBI and universal healthcare” is not far left. Far left is firebombing pharmaceutical companies or forceable seizure of private property to distribute amongst others, or enforced working arrangements to bring about equality.

What most Americans on Lemmy call “far left”, I’d call “basic respect for your fellow man and the compassion to put others before yourself”.

How did you come to that conclusion?

“not being a fan means you actively oppose her”

“I’m not a fan, but I don’t actively oppose her” (by way of hospital food analogy)

“okay… So you agree with me?”

Do you think “not a fan of” means “dislike”?

I don’t agree with that line of thought. The taste of hospital food is also very neutral but I wouldn’t say I’m a fan of it. I also wouldn’t say I’m actively opposing it, and if served it in a situation where I can’t get anything else I wouldn’t snub my nose at it, but it wouldn’t be my first choice.

I think they’re a very vocal, but disagreed with, minority. I think some people here think all of Lemmy is unwaveringly anti-corporation and anti-capitalist.

I’d consider myself mostly anti-corporation and mostly anti-capitalist, but I also understand that not everything every corporation does is out of some desire to commit the worst thing possible on mankind (e.g. retiring old authentication servers that they’ve kept running for years while warning people that it’d eventually be cut off).

Anyway, Lemmy hates these 5 Cs (in no particular order): -Corporations

-CEOs (in particular Elon Musk and Spez)

-Conservative politics of any kind

-Capitalism

-Chromium browsers, even the privacy-oriented spinoffs.

Harder than you might think. A male testing positive on a pregnancy test is a marker for some forms of testicular cancer.

Yeah, I have no love for Meta, but this is a case of damned if you do or damned if you don’t. If they didn’t censor it, how much do you bet there’d be an article posted here that said “Threads allows Covid and vaccine misinformation to spread as cases rise”

Ah yes, just what the working class desperately needs, a gatekeeper.

Yep, believe it or not, we have cities and an overinflated property market in Australia too. But Scott Farquhar is very down to earth for a billionaire. Comes from a less-affluent area of Sydney, went to public school (admittedly one of the most difficult to be admitted to), doesn’t surprise me that he’s more “understanding” of the employees.

“tokenboomer”, poorly executed references to the “everything is communism” trope, insulting “the liberals”… Come on guy, trolling is a subtle art. You can do better, I believe in you.

That’s a completely unrelated issue with Logitech. Firefox is “blocked” because it doesn’t support WebUSB (nor does Safari). I understand this web DRM is bad tech and we want to be morally outraged, but spreading misinformation makes the Lemmy crowd look less like activists/enthusiasts and more like chicken little.

Hey, fellow Vivaldi user👋 . Yep, one of the Vivaldi devs already said if it was added upstream, they’d strip it out of the Chromium code, but they acknowledge that this would cause problems if WEI became standard. Websites would start to expect it, and not having that functionality would be a death-sentence for any browser (Chromium or otherwise).
